I’ve been interviewing internally and externally, literally on the same day I received an offer for a new position at Visa as a Sr Director and a Director position at Appfolio (non tech). Appfolio is wfh, but pay is slightly lower TC Visa - 280k TC Appfolio - 260k Anyone have any thoughts on Appfolio? Got great reviews on blind and Glassdoor. Even if I stay at Visa I’ll probably continue to look externally for something better. #appfolio
Congrats OP! I would stay for Sr Director role, since title and comp are both higher. Do you have a strong reason to WFH, like desire to move out of Bay?
Not a desire to move out of the Bay Area, but somewhere that makes commuting a pretty long journey. Maybe 1.5 hours each way.
I understand. I used to do San Ramon to Cupertino several years pre pandemic, and I’d take a 5-10% pay cut to get that time back too. How long have you been at Visa? If you’ve crossed the 7-8 year mark (this is coming from someone at Autodesk), it may be good to leave and keep your skills sharp. You can always boomerang back. Anything under that, my threshold to learn a new industry, build new relationships (essentially start from scratch) would remain very high, e.g., next role would have to be better on many dimensions, not just WFH Good luck! You have two great choices.
